There were only two pubs in Elephant St, I lived in Hargreaves St in the 1930's which is not very far from where Elephant St was. A member of the Accrington Pals lived on that street next to the ginnal that led thro to Higher Pitt St.

Thanks Cashman and Walter, thought it must be wrong, good to have it confirmed by local residents.
By the way Cashy the info was on a website not in a book.
